This design is Land of 10,000 Lakes! This original design celebrates the State of Minnesota - from Rochester (not New York) to Little Falls to International Falls...lots of water up there!!! What a beautiful state!!!

Three stripes down both sides and hand dyed rick-rack at the top and bottom add a charming vintage touch. Delightfully presented in a fab organdy re-usable pouch!
